2. 1. Pharmacometric Models to Improve Treatment of Tuberculosis

   Author : Elin M Svensson; Mats O Karlsson; Maria C Kjellsson; Ulrika S H Simonsson; N. L’Ntshotsholé (Shasha) Jumbe; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : pharmacokinetics; pharmacodynamics; population approach; nonlinear mixed-effects models; multidrug-resistant tuberculosis; bedaquiline; antiretroviral; drug-drug interactions; time-to-event; albumin; Klinisk farmakologi; Clinical Pharmacology;

   Abstract : Tuberculosis (TB) is the world’s most deadly infectious disease and causes enormous public health problems. The comorbidity with HIV and the rise of multidrug-resistant TB strains impede successful therapy through drug-drug interactions and the lack of efficient second-line treatments. READ MORE

4. 2. Genetic Analysis of Quantitative Traits Using Domestic Animals : A Candidate Gene and Genome Scanning Approach

   Author : Hee-Bok Park; Leif Andersson; Stefan Marklund; Robert Fredricksson; Holger Luthman; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Domestication; horse; pig; chicken; quantitative traits; candidate gene; genome scan; PRKAG3; MC4R; selection experiment; growth; correlated response; metabolic disorders; Quantitative Trait Loci; linkage; single nucleotide polymorphisms; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

   Abstract : Domestication has led to genetic changes that affect quantitative traits in farm animals. Both candidate gene analysis using association tests and genome scans based on linkage analysis have been performed to understand the molecular basis underlying quantitative genetic variation in horses, pigs and chickens.

5. 3. Understanding management accounting when "institutions matter" : a multimethod approach

   Author : Malin Härström; Jonas Gerdin; Hans Englund; Kirsi-Mari Kallio; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Management accounting; institutional theory; performance measurement; academia; situations; perceived control exposure; multimethod approach;

   Abstract : This thesis departs from a need to map extant research on management accounting (MA) drawing on institutional theorizing, due to unnecessary confusion and unclarity within. Four ‘areas of confusion’ are reviewed, i.e. MA as a concept, modelling of workings of and reasons for agency, MA’s role in social accounts and sources of (i. READ MORE

6. 4. Collaborating and communicating in new media - wiki's, social networks and blogs : a qualitative and quantitative approach

   Author : Gené van Heerden; Arthur Money; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Industriell marknadsföring; Industrial Marketing;

   Abstract : The Web 2.0 environment has created a platform where the power and voice have shifted from organization to market. Communities, networks and the developments in information communication technologies have enabled the average consumer to become an active participant in creating and recreating value. READ MORE

7. 5. Deciphering sequence data : A multivariate approach

   Author : Maria Sandberg Hiltunen; Michael Sjöström; Svante Wold; Lars Ståhle; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Principal properties; amino acids; nucleotides; tRNA; DNA; multivariate data analysis; sequence analysis; QSAR; quantitative sequence activity relationships;

   Abstract : In this thesis, attention has been focused on the quantitative description of nucleic acids, proteins and peptides. The strategy was to use multivariate chemometrical methods for improving the understanding of the complex structural codes of these kinds of biological molecules. READ MORE
